Mostly many a learners have a genuine doubt, how to use Adjectives and where exactly it comes in a sentence according to accuracy in grammatical order. Let me clearly tell you a thing that there is no strict rule for using adjectives. We can very well start a sentence with an adjective and use more than one adjective in a sentence. Only it should be used in appropriate position.
I am going out with my friends.
I am going out with my jovial friends.
I am in jovial mood and going out to my favorite place with my friends.
Adjectives add more meaning as well beauty to our expressions. Besides we should be able to choose appropriate adjectives. For that we must learn adjectives thoroughly and keeping that thing in mind I have given a list in previous article. Check and learn how to use effectively, if have any doubts you can always clarify.
Interesting book.
Informative book.
Good and picturesque book.
Mind capturing book.
Well written book.
All these adjectives tell about the book.
We can use many adjectives too but not irrelevantly.
My cat is having a sound sleep on the red (all the colors are adjectives) soft carpet which is quite expensive.
In this sentence sound, red, soft, quite and expensive 5 adjectives are used but they all give a sense so accordingly you too can try and learn good expression.
